Marion

Hello, my name is Marion and I am a secondary teacher in Scotland.

I will describe my experience and why I enjoy to teach my language.

First of all, I hold a Postgraduate Diploma in Education (French). It is the official Diploma to be secondary teacher in UK.
I also hold further qualifications in teaching French as a Foreign Language (Master level) and a certificate which qualifies me as an examiner for the DALF/DELF test. As, besides French teaching, I have obtained a bachelor degree in Law in France, I can also help you develop your language skills in this specific domain.

I really enjoyed teaching and I have solid experience in teaching French. I have taught French across different settings, including national French Alliances, university, secondary schools and primary schools. One of the highlights was my experience in the delivering French language lessons in an undergraduate programme at Radboud University in Nijmegen, Netherlands. In this role, I was preparing the course materials online through Blackboard, and implemented various activities during classes in university (e.g., video challenges, exercises to work on the 4 differents language skills, innovative activities, role play etc.)
As a secondary school teacher I am able to engage students in evaluating their own thinking, identifying their common mistakes and allowing scope for improvements.

How could be your first lesson?
We will speak about your needs (why do you want to learn French). I will then test a bit your 4 skills (listening/writing/reading/speaking) to situate your level. I will also ask you what are you interested in in general so I can use these topics through the lesson ( culture, gastronomy, news etc.)
Repetition is one of the keys in my teaching. You will become confident quickly.
I use different support materials and techniques, articles, videos, to try to make the lesson the most pleasant possible.



I am patient, hard-working and really positive.


Looking forward to meeting you!
